I installed one one my 71 Cuda about 4 years ago. Everything good so far. The fit was perfect. I wish I got the polished tanks, like in the ebay ad. Great price for that one on ebay. I'd buy it for my Cordoba but my present rad is still good. Don't get their fans though. Too weak and noisy. I had to replace.

I have used two of them and both were fine, not the most original looking and I had to slot the mount holes to fit. My factory shroud bolted up but I had to make up a filler as it left a gap from the shroud to the top tank. I used the three row ones which had 3/4" tubes, the 4 row ones come through with 5/8" tubes. They are 3" thick so you will need to check fan clearance.

My Champion cools well, but the fit was terrible. I had to re-drill mounting holes & butcher/modify the hell out of my fan shroud (plastic factory reproduction)
